A friend got me interested in handloading in 1990. He had been doing it for a few years and suggested that I start. I bought a starter kit and he helped me to set it up and now I load much more than he ever did. I would guess that the others are correct and less than 10% of shooters do it. I will say that my talking to co-workers has helped to start 3 of them recently. A friend of mine in Ft. Worth, Texas told me it was too big a pain in the rear from what he could see. But then he is not really a shooter either having guns he hasn't shot in years. I like the process of tinkering around with the stuff and the satisfaction it brings me when I shoot a load that is accurate and I know I put it together and at less cost than factory ammo. I load 44 special among others and that stuff is high dollar.
